Work In Tech

Alethea is a Calgary-based eConsult and communications platform for all Family Physicians and Nurse Practitioners in Alberta. Alethea helps primary care providers access faster specialist care and advice. Currently, Alethea provides eConsultation for 20 specialties in Alberta, along with AI diagnostic support for ENT and Dermatology. We are actively expanding into new markets in BC and Ontario. 

Our technology enables providers to record images through our mobile app and online portal, and use our AI decision support tool. Through our platform, an eConsult can be sent to our team of specialists. The referring provider will receive recommendations for treatment and follow-up within 24-48 hours without the need to wait months to years for a traditional consultation.
